In the beginning of the week I
discovered the Gallery of African Art in London based between Green Park and
Piccadily Circus thanks to my friend Kiitan. We decided to go there to see The
Spirit of Makonde, an exhibition of works by George Lilanga, a Tanzanian
artist. Sculptures, paintings, etchings were exposed and I loved each of it.
George Lilanga's work is upon 'the myths and cosmological beliefs of his
Makonde heritage'. What makes his work popular is the representation of
Shetanis (spirits, devil) in daily scene (using phones, brushing teeth and lots
more). Lilanga's work is full of bright colors, full of humour and fascinating.
